Proposition: Given four concyclic points (lie on
the same circumference) A,B,C,D, if four circles through AB,
BC, CD, and AD are drawn, prove that the remaining four intersections points
A', B', C', and D' of successive circles are concyclic.

Dynamic Geometry: You can alter the figure above
dynamically in order to test and prove (or disproved)
conjectures and gain mathematical insight that is less
readily available with static drawings by hand.

This page uses the
TracenPoche
dynamic geometry software and requires
Adobe Flash player 7 or higher.
